Saison M is the 5th member of Ron Jeffries non-alphabetic Letter Series. Saison M was brewed with all ingredients sourced from our great state of Michigan. The grains – Pilsner, Spelt and Munich 10, were all malted by our friends at Pilot Malt House and the Cascade and Chinook hops come from Churchkey Farms. Our process of open fermentation allows the natural occurring wild yeast of Dexter to also work its way into this beer, resulting in the Michigan trinity we are proud to call Saison M.
Saison M is a well-balanced confluence of Michigan agriculture with notes of lemon, pineapple, and resinous pine. Mild bitterness washes over the tongue before giving way to hints of oak and moderate acidity.
Nwarvik, giant captive protector beetle of the southern mouse people steadfastly carries castles of invaders to consume and burn the lush and fertile fields and forests of the far north in violent century old retribution for the sins of fathers long dead - Will the ice crystalline palaces and inky indigo lakes survive the night…?
We grew here, you flew here.
Or drove, I guess. I guess you could have driven. Maybe took a train or bus, too. Or a giant rhino beetle.
Brewed with 100% Michigan grown ingredients
Cheers & Mahalo plenty!

On tap @ Ghetto Something. Aroma is citrusy, vinous, funky and mild malty. Pours cloudy golden color with rocky white head, great lacing and soft visible carbonation. Taste starts light sweet grainy and tart acetic, following is funky, resinous, earthy and woody with very mild bitter finish. Medium body, slick texture and soft carbonation in palate. Mmm...

Keg at BD TH, 16/05/18. Lightly hazed golden blonde with a decent off white cap. Nose is lemon tinged straw, grains, yeast esters, melon. Taste comprises farmyard notes, grass, light white peppery spice, grains, lemon rind, light hop presence. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close. Adequate saison but didn't pull out of third gear for me.

Draft at Craft Brewed. Pours a hazy gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Light crisp, crackery malt, some yeast, hay and grassy citrus aromas. Light funk on the palate, with a clean and crisp, light body. Very drinkable, with active carbonation. Finish ends with a light funk and grassy pomelo notes.
